2024 TDF TT Belgian hope Remco Evenepoel...

            ... to one day win the Tour de France.
Sunday, July 21: 21st and Final Stage, Monaco - Nice 33.7 km individual time trial.
The 'old' cannibal Eddy Merckx makes no secret of his admiration for REMCO EVENEPOEL. “A truly wonderful Tour by Remco in an edition in which one man stood out far above, Tadej Pogacar.”
Evenepoel won a stage, namely the time trial from Nuits-St.-Georges to Gevrey-Chambertin over 25.3 km (stage 7).
“For Remco, that third place in the GC must be a great satisfaction. He has been able to determine that he can compete well in the mountains. I think that the mountains in France Remco are even better situated than those in Italy or Spain. There was of course still a gap with Pogacar, who even won the last three stages, but that can sometimes happen quickly.”
Merckx even suspects that "Remco Evenepoel did not have a single bad day in this Tour. That is also very promising. Remco surprised me in a positive way. He has shown everyone that he can perform at the same level for three weeks. Absolute. And he was always very calm.” (...) Merckx also thought that Soudal Quick-Step rode very well: Evenepoel on the podium and Landa fifth. “The teammates have not once had to correct a situation for their leader. On the contrary. That also says a lot about the leader himself.”
